Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Varicose veins (VVs), a common vascular disease, are functionally characterized by dilation and tortuosity and are widely prevalent in the adult population. The pathophysiology and molecular mechanism of VVs are still unclear. A genetic risk for VVs has been demonstrated, although no genetic variant pertaining to VVs has been identified. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their endogenous tissue...
